On 30 May 2023, Poland’s Ministry of Infrastructure published the results of six adjudication proceedings for Phase II offshore wind locations. In the competitive process for area 14.E.4 on the Odra Bank, the Orlen Group’s project company Orlen Neptun IV was ranked first. This ranking outcome effectively awarded Orlen Neptun IV priority rights to develop an offshore wind farm in the 14.E.4 zone, ahead of other bidders such as EDF Renewable Offshore Poland I and Antares Offshore Wind Farm. The decision marks the formal selection of Orlen Neptun IV as the winning applicant for this seabed area, enabling the project to progress towards execution of the siting permit (PSzW) and further early‑stage development activities within the Baltic West cluster.
